Parents suggesting their kids take Algebra 2 in 8th should read various Math 4 threads in the AAP forum.

Probably. In my DD's Algebra 2 class, they have only 3 white kids, 2 of which were rejected by TJ. DD knows at least 12 Asian kids from her class that were accepted.


Which school?
Longfellow.


If kids start Algebra 1 in 7th grade, how do they get to algebra 2 in 8th?
DD takes both geometry and algebra 2 in 8th. She wanted to skip algebra 1 entirely because she already knew it, but FCPS didn't allow that and said she can take 2 math classes in 8th instead. Her love of math is exceptional though. If she didn't get into TJ, McLean High told her she can take AP statistics in 9th.
